Analysis and parametric sensitivity of the behavior of overshoots in the concentration of a charged adsorbate in the adsorbed phase of charged adsorbent particles: practical implications for separations of charged solutes

In this work, an analysis of the parametric sensitivity of the overshoot in the concentration of the adsorbate in the adsorbed phase, which occurs under certain conditions during an ion-exchange adsorption process, is presented and used to suggest practical implications of the concentration overshoot phenomenon on operational policies and configurations of chromatographic columns and finite bath adsorption systems. The results presented in this work demonstrate and explain how the development of an overshoot in the concentration of the adsorbate in the adsorbed phase could be enhanced or suppressed by (i) varying the diffusion coefficient, D3, of the adsorbate relative to the diffusion coefficients, D1 and D2, of the cations and anions, respectively, of the background/buffer electrolyte, (ii) altering the initial surface charge density, delta0, of the charged adsorbent particles, (iii) varying the Debye length, lambda, and (iv) changing the initial concentration, Cd3(0), of the adsorbate in the bulk liquid of the finite bath. The influence of the pH and ionic strength, Iinfinity, of the liquid solution on the development of an overshoot in the concentration of the adsorbate in the adsorbed phase is also presented and discussed through the relationships of these parameters to delta0 and lambda, respectively. Furthermore, a detailed explanation of the effects of each parameter on the interplay between the diffusive and electrophoretic molar fluxes, as well as on the structure and functioning of the electrical double layer, which are responsible for the concentration overshoot phenomenon, is presented.     

Carbonylation reaction Communication 11. Carbonylation of amino alcohols and some cyclic amines with carbon monoxide in the presence of mercuric acetate

Conclusions Primary amino alcohols react with CO in the presence of mercuric acetate at 100–200° and a pressure of 100–150 atm to give the corresponding N-(hydroxyalkyl)formamides in a yield of 1.4–2.5 M/M of reacted Hg(OCOCH₂)₃. Morpholine under analogous conditions forms the corresponding formyl derivative and the urea derivative in a 1.2–51 ratio, while cyclohexylamine forms the same derivatives in an 0.7 1 ratio.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 7, pp. 1533–1536, July, 1973.     

Preparative method of obtaining L- and D-2-hydroxy-3-methylbutyric acids

Summary A preparative method was developed for obtaining L-and D-2-hydroxy-3-methylbutyric acids by the separation of racemic 2-hydroxy-3-methylbutyric acid with the aid of D-and L-threo-2-amino-1-p-nitrophenyl-1,3-propanediols.     

Structures of nitramine and isonitramine — Alkaloids of a new type from plants of the genusNitraria

The proof of the structures of two isomeric alkaloids — nitramine and isonitramine — from two species of plants of the genusNitraria is given. Their diastereoisomerism with respect to the C₇ asymmetric atom has been established. This is the first time that alkaloids with the structure of 2-azaspiro[5,5]undecan-7-ol have been found.     

Promotion by phosphorus compounds of ruthenium-catalyzed methyl formate homologation

Trivalent phosphorus compounds are promoters for methyl formate homologation to ethanol and ethyl formate catalyzed by ruthenium compounds in the presence of iodide at 220°C and 27 MPa of synthesis gas. Under these conditions the phosphines are quaternized, but decomposition of phosphonium salts occurs during the reaction. Promotion is also observed for methyltriphenyl-phosphonium bromide and triphenylphosphine sulfide, but benzyltrimethyl-ammonium bromide, triphenylarsine, and triphenylantimony are not effective. The major ruthenium species present is Ru(CO)₃I₃^- but with triphenylantimony a trimethylantimony complex, Ru(CO)₂(Sb(CH₃)₃)₂I₂, can be isolated in high yield.     

Equilibrium studies of Mn(II), Mg(II), Ca(II), Sr(II) and Ba(II) withp-fluoro-,p-chloro-,p-bromo-,p-methyl-benzoylacetones and 1-(4-fluorophenyl)-1,3-pentanedione

The rawpH-data, obtained from the potentiometric titrations of the titled ligands with NaOH in 75% (v/v) dioxane-water mixture performed at 20, 30 and 40°C at constant ionic strength (=0.1M-NaClO₄), have been adequately corrected for dilution, and solvent effects in order to evaluate thermodynamic dissociation constants. Variance of the latter as a function of temperature has also been accounted for. The differing magnitudes of thermodynamic dissociation constants of the titled ligands have been explained on the basis of the non coplanar orientation of the phenyl ring in the ligands and a comparison has been made with those of unsubstituted benzoylacetone, dibenzoylmethane and acetylacetone.Following similar technique, thermodynamic stepwise and overall formation constants of the titled metal-ligand systems have been obtained and the results correlated with ligand basicity inverse metal crystal radii and second potentials of metals. Decrease in the free enthalpy (–G) of complexation reaction has also been evaluated.

Zusammenfassung Aus der potenitometrischen Titration der Titelverbindungen mit NaOH in 75 (v/v) Dioxan—Wasser bei, 20, 30 und 40°C bei konstanter Ionenstärke (=0,1M-NaClO₄) wurden die thermodynamischen Dissoziationskonstanten ermittelt. Verdünnungs-, Lösungsmittel-und Temperatureffekte wurden berücksichtigt. Die unterschiedlichen Dissoziationskonstanten werden mit der Nichtplanarität des Phenylrings in den Liganden erklärt. Außerdem wurden die Komplexbildungskonstanten bestimmt; sie sind in die Diskussion miteinbezogen.

     

The effect of thermal processing on PVC—VI. The role of hydrogen chloride

The reaction between cumene hydroperoxide (CHP) and anhydrous hydrogen chloride under various conditions of temperature and concentration has been studied in an inert solvent (chlorobenzene) and in an oxidisable medium (cumene). The kinetics were first order with respect to each reactant; the energy of activation of the overall second-order reaction was 53.4 kJ mol^?1 K^?1. Competing ionic and free radical mechanisms were found to operate, the latter predominating at relatively high HCl concentrations, leading to rapid pro-oxidation in cumene. The effect of typical organo-tin PVC stabilizers on the pro-oxidant process were examined. It was found that dibutyltin maleate neutralized the HCl thus eliminating the pro-oxidant effect when used in stoichiometric proportions, but had little other effect. Dioctyltin bis(isol-octylthioglycollate) on the other hand not only neutralized the HCl stoichiometrically but gave additional oxidative stabilization over a wide concentration range.
